“Wikipedia Vision”
Go and watch. Pretty spooky. I love it.
I’ve always had a lot of admiration for Trent Reznor, especially as a producer and proveyer of weird noises. He’s good at making weird noises. And I love weird noises.
In the beginning of this concert clip, he explains to the crowd that since the record companies wont lower their prices, fans should all just go ahead and steal the music.
The song they go in to after is neat too. I really like how NIN uses digital effects. I just might go *buy* that record. Nah. I’ll barrow it from one of my several million close friends online.
BTW
Reznor also publishes Garageband versions of songs for people to remix. Pretty cool. Yay for Nine Inch Nails! Forward thinking for sure.

Oct. 29 – Digital distribution is being touted as a way for independent filmmakers to reach audiences and potential sponsors.London’s Film Festival staged a special event called “Power To The Pixel” which explored how internet sites like YouTube can help independent filmmakers.
Update: You can usually un-block your landline number on a per-call basis by pressing *82 before you dial out.
I hate not knowing who’s calling. If you have a Private Number, I suggest you UN-Private it. It’s become a symbol of untrustworthiness. Sorry to say it.
Maybe I don’t have a right to know who you are. Then again, maybe you don’t have a right to bother me.
You say, “What about back when we didn’t have Caller I.D? Did you just not answer the phone?”
I say, “Yes. A good deal of the time I didn’t answer the phone.”
Besides, now we do have Caller I.D, so that’s the norm and that’s what is expected.
Emails have return addresses, real mail has return addresses, human beings speaking to eachother in person have return addresses and so should phone calls.
This is a good presentation that he gives. About an hour long. It really changed how I think about creativity culture and ownership(intellectual property etc). Lawrence Lessig is the founder of of Creative Commons. This is important subject matter. It touches everyone.

Tumblr imports and re-blogs your wordpress, blogger, twitter, youtube, flickr, delicious and other RSS feeds to a new, super user-friendly publishing platform… super-automatic. Super easy. Super awesome.
If I had known this before I spent a bunch of time adding my other feeds to my blogroll, I wouldn’t have bothered. I may have to ditch WordPress alltogether now. We’ll see. Tumblr is just… Amazing.
Been making some tweaks and updates to this blog and the links over there on the side. I just noticed that WordPress is an OpenID server now. I think that’s a new feature for WordPress. OpenID is a way for signing in to multiple sites/services with only one actual login. In turn, you don’t need to go thru an email registration process to sign up with a service that supports OpenID sign-in. Just give the new site the URL of your OpenID and if you’re signed in with your OpenID, youre good to go. I think it’s cool that OpenID continues to spread. That’s all for information.
To make this post more interesting, I’m including a selection of Lindas from a google image search. Try it some time. Pick a random name and go for it. You get some really weird and interesting stuff. Linda Braidwood seems to be a popular Linda. Interesting. Look at the guy with his face missing! Wow. Choral Directors’ Guide to Sanity and Success. Hmmm.
This is so good. Makes me wish more people realized they could be using RSS/feeds. I am!! Like crazy.
